Some of MapSpeller Key Innovations

MapSpeller supports conventional dictionary-based spell checking but also offers several ways of handling the challenges specific to spell checking maps (patent pending), including by:

  • Inventing Locationaries™, spatially-smart dictionaries.
     
  • Using customizable danger dictionaries. Danger dictionaries are dictionaries of correctly spelled words that one would typically not see in maps. Those words could be misspellings for other words. For example, "sight" could be a misspelled "site", "pubic" would probably be a misspelling for "public", etc.
     
  • Letting users focus on specific map objects through The MapSpeller extension's toolbar.
  • Exclusively spell-checking the visible portion of a map document. User can control what text is visible and therefore what should be spell checked and to what geographic extent.
  • Spell checking in batch mode. All errors are found and reported in a single dialog thereby increasing user productivity.
